Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides a novel triphenylene compound with a high level of excited triplet energy and a silylethynyl group, a method of manufacturing the compound, and a phosphorescent device made by using the compound as a host compound in its luminous layer. The compound has good solubility and can be easily manufactured. The phosphorescent device made by using the compound has low voltage requirements for driving and can be used in various applications such as displays and lighting devices. The technical effects of the invention include improved efficiency and reduced power consumption of phosphorescent devices."

Problems solved by technology

The host compound is required to have a higher level of excited triplet state energy than that of the phosphorescent dopant, and the compounds which can be employed are, therefore, limited.
However, it is considered necessary to develop a novel host compound, since the phosphorescent devices employing the existing phosphorescent host compounds have drawbacks including the necessity for a high driving voltage.
However, there has not been known any triphenylene compound having a silylethynyl group.
Attempts have been made to isolate a triphenylene compound (terminating at H) having a silylethynyl group by the desilylation reaction of 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis(trimethylsilylethynyl)triphenylene, but its isolation has been difficult, as it is unstable in the air and immediately undergoes a polymerization reaction to form a polymeric product.

1. Synthesis of 2,3,6,7,10,11-Hexakis(trimethylsilylethynyl)triphenylene—General Formula (V)

The synthesis of 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis(trimethylsilylethynyl)triphenylene was performed by the method as described below.

1.1. Synthesis of Triphenylene

Triphenylene was synthesized by the reaction shown below:

(Materials and Amounts Employed)

2-Bromofluorobenzene (Tokyo Kasei, 99%): 10.12 g / 5.73×10-z mole

Mg (Wako, flaky, 99.5%): 1.54 g / 6.30×10−2 mole

THF (treated with benzophenoneketyl): 85+15 ml

(Operation and Results)

A 200-ml three-necked flask having a dropping funnel, a Dimroth condenser and a spinner was subjected to flameout treatment and purged with argon. The flask was charged with Mg and it was subjected to two hours of activation at 180° C. The flask was charged with 85 ml of THF, and the dropping funnel with 2-bromofluorobenzene and 15 ml of THF, and their dropping took 20 minutes (the generation of heat started immediately after the dropping was started). The dropping was followed by s...

Synthesis and Spectral Analysis of 2,3,6,7,10,11-Hexakis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)triphenylene

Triisopropylsilylacetylene was first synthesized by the reaction shown below:

This was reacted with 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexabromotriphenylene to synthesize 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)triphenylene (general formula (VI)). The reaction was similar to that employed for 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis-(trimethylsilylethynyl)triphenylene. The yield was 55%.

The ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra of 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis-(triisopropylsilylethynyl)triphenylene were determined in hexane at room temperature. The results are shown in FIG. 10 with data on triphenylene and 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis(trimethylsilylethynyl)triphenylene.

A shift to a longer wavelength was observed with 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)triphenylene, too, as compared with triphenylene.

The fluorescence spectra of 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis (triisopropyl-silylethynyl)triphenylene were determined in 3-methylpentane (3-...

Description

TECHNICAL FIELDThe present invention relates to a novel triphenylene compound having a high level of excited triplet energy and containing a silylethynyl group, a method of manufacturing the same and an organic electroluminescent device employing the same.BACKGROUND ARTThere is already known an organic electroluminescent device having a multilayer laminated structure and employing phosphorescence (an organic electroluminescent device employing phosphorescence being hereinafter referred to also as a phosphorescent device) (see U.S. Pat. No. 6,097,147). A device relying solely on fluorescence for emission of light has a theoretical limit of 25% as its internal quantum efficiency, since it employs an excited singlet state, but a phosphorescent device is considered to have a theoretical limit of 100% as its internal quantum efficiency, since excited energy of the triplet state contributes to emission of light. Accordingly, a phosphorescent device is superior to a fluorescent device, as ...
